    Grey as a mouse,

    Big as a house,

    Nose like a snake,

    I make the earth shake,

    As I tramp through the grass;

    Trees crack as I pass.

    With horns in my mouth

    I walk in the South,

    Flapping big ears.

    Beyond count of years

    I stump round and round,

    Never lie on the ground,

    Not even to die.

    Oliphaunt am I,

    Biggest of all,

    Huge, old, and tall.

    If ever you’d meet me

    You wouldn’t forget me.

    If you never do,

    You won’t think I’m true;

    But old Oliphaunt am I,

    And I never lie.





  • I would have been happy to pay to get API access for 3rd party apps on my account. Maybe 1 or 2 dollars per account and month would have been reasonable to cover the costs without ad revenue. Double it to please greedy shareholders.

    Instead they asked for such ludicrous amounts from 3rd party developers, basically telling them to fuck off.

    Either they were mad for control or got greedy over their „golden data“ for AI training. Or both. In any case, they never were interested in finding a user friendly solution so fuck them.







  • Well, if that commenter had more than just a vague idea of caching and/or swapping, they would know that the right algorithm can make or break performance.

    That paper is not “we invented caching”, but “this is how we make some certain models work well despite constraints imposed by RAM and flash storage.”

    It’s a worthy job for an engineer or researcher. Not quite as innovative as the invention of the wheel, but still enough to write a paper on (and read it, if you can manage to understand it).








  • Add some good (low sugar and low added fats) peanut butter or any other nut butter and/or ground nuts to your oats. Makes for a healthy and calorie rich meal that keeps you sated for a while. It’s easy on the stomach, does not cause the blood sugar to rise quickly and you can eat it spoon by spoon over the whole day, if necessary.

    Also don’t forget to drink plenty. I find tea and highly diluted apple juice (like 10%) are ideal when I am sick.
